⁶ When Ahimelech’s son Abiathar fled to David at Keilah, Abiathar brought a priestly ephod^[a] with him.

⁷ When Saul was told that David went to Keilah, Saul said, “Elohim has delivered him into my hands. He has trapped himself by going into a city which has a gate with a double door held shut by a bar.” ⁸ So Saul called together all the troops to go to war and blockade Keilah, where David and his men were.
